4 Things to Know This Week

I heard someone famous say, "Christianity is always personal but never private."  We have always been touched to our very souls by Jesus.  He has given us life.  That is always personal.  How can we ever keep something like that private, shielded from others?  I encourage you to never let your personal faith become private.  Especially as we invite others to hear the good news during Easter week.
